Chris - A simple COBOL program that uses DISPLAY UPON CONSOLE
and ACCEPT FROM CONSOLE will work. You can write it to ACCEPT the
text to be displayed, then provide the text in a job, which makes it more
flexible. I'd be happy to send you an example if you'd like.

In a job stream, how do I send a message out to the console that will
halt the job until the message is replied to?
Thanks in advance,
